' To all whom it may concern:

Be it; known that we, Vic'rou ]nREi.'/.-

vicicii, a citizen of the Russian Empire, rcsid- 1 reqgurements.

inc; a. 76 Honneggstrasse, Zurich, V, Switzerland, and (li's'rAv ltosicxut'scii. a citizen of the German Empire, residiuzr at 76 Sonnegg" strasse, Zurich, Y, Switzerl nd, have. inv

ed a new and useful Heating Device, oi which i of the bottom of the receptacle to be heated. When out of use the supports 8 are laid on the following, is a specilication.

()ur invention relates to improvements in devices for heating vessels, kettles and the Fig. 3 and the cover 4 placed in the opening 3.

like with solidilied spirit.

The object oi our invention is to provide a v the cover is taken oil the receptacle 1 and the device which will he of simple, durable and comparatively inexpensive character.

t'i-rt her object oi our invention is to provide a heatin device which is well adapted the bottom of the receptacle to be heated.

for heating vessels ol very diilerent sizes and which may he packed closely for traveling purposes.

Still further the ob'ect ol" our invention is r to create a heating device with a burner adjustahle in respect to the vessel to be heated.

With these objects in view the invention consists of certain novel features of construction ccanhination and arraugen'ient of parts, as will be more iully described and particularly pointed out. in the appended claims.

in the accom mnying drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view oi our improved heating device in its opened position. Fig. 2 is a similar view, the support for carrying the vessels being turned inside, Fig. 3 is a similar view the heating device being in its closed position. Fig. 4 shows the cover and Fig. 5 a mantle in perspective views.

like numerals refer to like parts throughoutthe several views.

Referring to the drawings numeral, 1 denotes a receptacle or container in the form of a tin can, preferably ol circular cross section. The receptacle 1 provided at its top with an opening 3 adapted to be shut bymeans of a tightlytitling cover 4. The receptaclel eontains spirit in solid lorm. To the side wall of the receptacle '1 sleeves 5 of bent sheet metal are fixed at regular intervals. said sleeves 5 is one shank 7 of aU-shaped support 8 adjustably mounted and held by frictional engagement. 'lli(- 's1ipports 8 are .pre'ferahly of wire with circular cross section. -lhe middle parts 9 of the supports 8 are bent out ol the plan of the shank and flattened as shown in the drawings while the free. ends of the shanks 10 are bent outwardly, in order to give to the supports a. good looting. The

in each of the supports 8 may be swung in the sleeves 5 in any direction and the receptacle 1 may be raised or lowered on the shanks according to s will be readily seen the heating device can be advantageously used for very dii'lerent sizes of heating receptacles the supports being easily adjustable according to the size the side wall of the receptacle as shown in When it is desired to use the heating device solid spirit is ignited by means of a lighted match applied to the opening 3. The supports 8 are adjusted according to the size of To guide the flames against the bottom a ring or mantle 12 may be used. The ring 12 is adapted to slide over the receptacle 1 and for this purpose it is provided with slots 15 engaging the sleeves 5 ofthc receptacle 1.

' Space is left between ring 12 and side wall of thc'receptacle to allow the'inllow of suiticicnt air to support combustion. After use the llame of the heating device. is extinguished by forcing cover 4 in the opening 3 of receptacle 1 and the supports 8 are laid as aforesaid upon the side wall the ring 12 being, lel't upon the receptacle 1 between the supports. When the parts of the heater are thus arranged, the device is materially reduced in size and may be conveniently carno ried in ones pocket or in a lunch basket etc."

Thedevice may be constructed of any-v suitable material and may be in any desired shape.

Various other changes in the form proportion and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the. )rinciple or sacrificing any advantages of t e invention.

We claim 1- 1. A heating device comprising in combination, burner, and a plurality of inverted U-shaped supporting members therefor, one limb of each member being adjustably secured to the burner and the other limb of each member acting as a supporting foot for the burner, the bases of said U-shaped members lying above and overhanging the burner when collapsed against the. same.

2. A heating device comprising in combination, a burner, and a plurality of inverted U-shaped supporting members thereior, one

limb of each member being pivotally and adjustably secured to the side of the burner and the other limb of each memberjacting as a supporting foot for the burner, the bases or connecting portions of said U- shapedmembers 1 ing above and overhanging the burner w en collapsed against the same.

, 3. A heating device comprising in combination, a burner, and a plurality of inverted U-shaped supportin members therefor, said burner being provi ed with sleeves peripherally dis osed thereon, one limb of each -member eing ivotally and ad'ustably mounted to one 0? said sleeves and t e other limb of each member actin as a supporting foot'for'the burner, the fiases of said U- shaped membersl g above and overhang ing the burner w en collapsed against the. same. E v

4. A heating device comprising in combi nation, a burner in the form of a receptacle open at its up er ortop portion, and provided with a plura it of peripherally disposed sleeves, a cover or closing said opening, and

a plurality of inverted U-shaped supports secured in one of said sleeves and the other limb serving as a supporting foot.

5. A heating device comprising in combination, a burner in the form of a receptacle provided with an open top and a plum ity of peripherally disposed sleeves, a plurality of inverted U-shaped su )ports on which said burner is vertically a justable, one limb of each support being disposed in one of said sleeves and the other hmb acting as a supporting foot, a cover fitting the opening of said burner, and a ring provided with slots and adapted to fit over the receptacle substantially as described and shown.

In testimony whereof we affix our signaturesm presence of two witnesses.
